The Steam Pile of Shame

This doesn't apply to just steam but more of the way that gaming has gone by providing online shops to buy bundles of games or take advantage of those tasty 90% off games you see these days. I buy games from Steam, Bundlestars and Humble Bundle and my digital collection has become very bloated.

Over the years I have bought hundreds of games on PC and have probably played about a quarter of them for more than a few hours. I got a lot of games that I would buy but then never play or I would play for 10 minutes and simply say 'meh' and never return.

Do you have a pile of shame? Are there any games in your pile that you'd like to give more time but simply have better things to play? These games are the ones I own and really want to play but know I don't have time:

S.T.A.L.K.E.R: Call of Pritviat

Project Zomboid

Dying Light

Sleeping Dogs

Saints Row 4

Bastion

Pokemon Yellow (3DS)

The list goes on and on but those are a handful of the games I really want to get into but can't find the time or just go back to my default (BF4 or Trackmania 2).

Fallout 4 is the same for me too. I think I played about 4 hours then decided to spend 8 hours modding it before I got bored. I think the boredom came as soon as the town creation stuff kicked in and I just lost the will to play anymore.

Skyrim on the other hand... i have put about 300 hours into that but haven't even touched the DLC stuff yet.

@tokeyFallout 3+4 & Skyrim are some of my most played games!Played Bioshock & ME to the end, not played the rest

But yes I to have a load of never played games, but I bought them as free for the game I wanted on Bundlestars or Humble bundles.

My most played game is Civilisation V, knocked up many 1000's of hours there ;-(

But my "played" stats are skewed since I use idlemaster to get key drops from the free games. So a lot show upto 4 hours "playing" when I have never touched them, I hate sideways scrolling and platform games, preferring rpg & action ones.
